I am concerned that we are getting additional amendments on Report Stage because mistakes or omissions have been spotted on Committee Stage.Even on Report Stage we are getting additional amendments to Committee Stage amendments because mistakes or omissions were spotted in the Committee Stage of the Bill. If we continue with this charade of amendments, I am concerned that a similar situation will arise when the Bill is passed. We will have to go back and have a look because omissions and mistakes will have been made because we are not working on the composite version of the Bill. It is an absolutely ridiculous situation. Again, I call on the Minister to withdraw the Bill. I ask her to give us a full copy of the Bill that includes the Committee Stage amendments so that we can read it properly and thus ensure no omissions or mistakes are made.
